Hi folks
following the monthly releases 11.08 is in sight target date is the 25.August. This means
- Time : remember that the RC will be created on the 18th August. That is almost 1 week away, so flag any issues which may stop you from releasing. We could ask for a release later, than the 18th but this could hamper the efforts of the Platform team to test and fix issues so avoid delays if possible
- any blueprints which will be releasing tarballs as part of the LEBs should be targeting a project milestone for 2011.08. So far the following project is shortlisted for a release to our LEBs this month:
MULTIMEDIA: libjpeg-turbo
Each of the blueprints for the libjpeg-turbo 2011.08 milestone needs to have a headline and acceptance criteria. Check the links below for examples of what headline/acceptance entries look like: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+spec/linaro-android-upgrade... https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+spec/linaro-android-upgrade...
- any other work which does not release into our official LEBs but should be highlighted (as a major improvement or achievement), needs to provide a suitable highlight in the whiteboard for 11.08. Just adding a sentence with the title "headline" under the 11.08 section of the work items in the whiteboard would be sufficient. The headline should point out to a concrete result that the readers can try out (binary, test result, documentation)
The test content, neon forum seeds and wiki, and openMAX recommendation are in my opinion not part of the official LEB, so they need to be highlighted separately in the release announcement. I would then need the headline for the blueprints associated with these deliverables, to communicate to the release management.
Let me know if you have any concerns or questions.
